Total time: 40 minutes
Preparation time: 20 minutes
Baking time: 10 minutes
Number of servings: 8

Ingredients

For the sponge:
- 5 eggs
- 5 tablespoons of sugar
- 5 tablespoons of flour
- 2 tablespoons of oil
- 1 packet of vanilla sugar
- 1 essence of vanilla
- a pinch of salt

For the filling:
- 1 liter of liquid whipped cream
- 2 medium ripe and fragrant peaches

Decoration:
- Sugar paste roses (optional)

Preparation

Step 1: Preparing the sponge
Start by separating the eggs: put the egg whites in a large bowl and the yolks in another. Add a pinch of salt over the egg whites and begin to beat them with a mixer until they become frothy. When the foam becomes firm, gradually add the 2 tablespoons of sugar, continuing to mix until you obtain a glossy foam.

In the bowl with the yolks, add the remaining 3 tablespoons of sugar, the oil, the vanilla sugar, and the essence of vanilla. Whisk the mixture well until it becomes a homogeneous and light-colored cream.

Step 2: Mixing the ingredients
Now, carefully add the beaten egg whites over the yolk cream. Use a spatula and gently fold from top to bottom to avoid losing air from the egg whites. Sift the flour over the mixture and continue to gently mix until homogeneous.

Step 3: Baking the sponge
Prepare a baking tray: place parchment paper, grease it with butter, and dust with flour. Pour the sponge mixture into the tray and level the surface. Place the tray in the preheated oven at 180 degrees Celsius and bake for 10 minutes, or until the sponge becomes lightly golden and elastic.

Step 4: Cooling the sponge
As soon as the sponge is ready, remove it from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Moisten a kitchen towel and place it on a flat surface. Turn the sponge onto the towel, carefully remove the parchment paper, and roll the sponge with the help of the towel, forming a cylinder. Let it cool completely in this shape.

Step 5: Preparing the filling
While the sponge cools, you can prepare the filling. Whip the liquid cream with a mixer until it becomes firm, being careful not to turn it into butter. Cut the peaches into small cubes and add them to about a third of the whipped cream. Gently mix to avoid crushing the peaches.

Step 6: Assembling the roll
Unroll the cooled sponge and evenly spread the whipped cream and peach filling over the entire surface. Roll the sponge again, but this time without the help of the towel, being careful to keep the filling inside.

Step 7: Decorating the roll
After rolling the dessert, you can decorate it with the remaining whipped cream. If you wish, you can create sugar paste flowers to add an elegant touch. This step is optional, but it will certainly impress those who savor it.

Step 8: Serving
Let the roll cool slightly in the refrigerator before cutting it into slices. It is ideal served with a fragrant tea or a glass of sweet white wine, which will enhance the flavors of the peaches.

Useful tips
- Make sure the cream you use is very cold for better whipping.
- You can replace the peaches with other seasonal fruits, such as strawberries or raspberries, to vary the recipe.
- If you want an extra flavor, add a few drops of lemon juice to the peaches to intensify the aroma.
